    I bet they contacted Israel to ask them to pretty please not do that again, without imposing any consequences for doing so again

    Are they stupid enough to bomb another aid organization so soon after world kitchen? Given the (very) recent news about Netanyahu fearing an arrest, I wonder if some members of IDF are looking to increase the odds of that happening. Why destroy an unattended, clearly marked aid truck at a time when the strike wasn’t likely to kill any of the workers. Hmm…

      They’ve been killing aid workers and foreign solidarity people for decades. What makes you think they are going to stop now that they have had absolutely no consequences at all?

    Pretty interesting that this is buried several paragraphs into the article:

    The organization wouldn’t say outright if it believes the Israeli military was responsible and is calling on the Canadian government to investigate.

    So the organization isn’t even claiming that it was bombed by Israel, but it’s hard to imagine anyone reading the headline would think anything else…

      The list of groups potentially bombing things in northern Gaza is pretty limited:

      1. Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades
      2. Israeli Defense Forces

      And the IDF says that it has eliminated Hamas in that area…

      The headline said exactly what happened. The aid group stated that they believed that their truck was bombed in a targeted attack. They didn’t say who they thought made the attack but requested that the Canadian government reach out to Israel to request an answer. They also requested an investigation by Canadian authorities.

      It is fairly clear that the aid organization thinks Israel committed the bombing but they are allowing the Canadian government the latitude to be delicate with the situation.
